A great big DLMC thanks to Kelly Hogan for putting on such an amazing little show.
DLMC co-founder David Horning and his wife Mirabai graciously opened their back yard to nearly fifty guests – friends, neighbors, kids and out-of-town fans – for a great night of community and music. Thanks to everyone who showed up, especially those who brought food, drinks and even flowers for our hosts and artists.
Thanks, too, go out to Ryan and Scott who provided sound and lights; to KDRT for helping promote the show; and to Josh and Paul at Armadillo Music for selling a few tickets.
Our deepest gratitude goes to performers Casey, Kevin, Jim and Kelly for the beautiful music, and their embrace of our little grassroots organization. Double special thanks to guitarist Jim Elkington who had such a nice time playing in David’s yard with Jon Langford in 2010 he steered Kelly our way. Keep spreading the word, friends are always welcome!

Kelly is on the west coast promoting her new album I Like To Keep Myself In Pain – a powerful and moving testament to her talent and dedication to music. “I’ve spent the last ten years singing with people I love and admire,†Hogan says. “Neko [Case] and Jakob Dylan, Mavis Staples and Otis Clay and Andrew Bird. I got to really stretch out musically with a weekly residency at the Hideout with my jazz quartet (Kelly Hogan and the Wooden Leg), and I even joined a kid’s music band on the side (Wee Hairy Beasties with Sally Timms and Jon Langford). I’ve always wanted to know music from all sides of the elephant, and I feel like I used everything I ever learned to walk into that studio for [this] record.â€
